The following morning I had a shower and sat eating breakfast Nan was singing away to herself and was very happy, not surprising after her getting a g...od ride the night before, Granddad had gone to work and wouldn’t be home until teatime, Nan had mum at 16 and got married at 18 to Granddad and had been married many years.Nan was very modern in her ways and how she dressed Granddad was the total opposite, and very old fashioned, but was a hell of a laugh as well, Gran was what they would call a. He would only find out about my display after the ball was over, presenting him with, as Mademoiselle Duclos would say, a fait accompli.I wondered if she was going to be there at the dance as a chaperone. I hadn't liked the way she'd fondled Carl. Maybe my being there in the altogether would warn her off."You're very brave," mom observed. "There, your hair is done. How do you like it?"I studied it. I looked so different with my hair all piled on my head, a few graceful ringlets trailing around. And my back hurts." Of course it does." Warren maneuvered on the bed so that he was behind her. "Lean forward a little bit." She did, and Warren started massaging her back."Oh, honey, that feels good," Sophia moaned. "Oh, my back is so sore."Warren rubbed her back for a while, then snaked one hand around the front of her body and grabbed a breast."You cheat!" Sophia laughed. "Mmmm, I think I like this better than the backrub." Uh-huh," Warren smirked. "You know what? These things are huge." Why. I asked him, 'Do what?' Do you know what he said?"Bill smiled and said, "I don't know, but I'll make a guess. He can't figure how you keep your people."She grinned and squeezed his hand. "I love my perceptive husband! That's it! It seems he had lunch with Sandy a couple of days ago. She cleaned their clock in court last week and absolutely destroyed their senior litigation partner. The guy was so crushed he's accepted an appointment as a judge. Bradford offered Sandy his position: senior.
